“Because I was so interested in participating in the stories…I would make up scenes in stories and dream about them to the point that sometimes I would talk to somebody and have a totally different version of a book that we’re both reading.”įurther, La Sala said, “I’ve always been compulsively interested in affecting the world around me and sort of bringing fantasy to life.” “I was interested in reading stories and fairy tales, but I would always get to a point in the story where I put the book down and had to act it out myself-I had to participate in it myself,” La Sala said. Because reading wasn’t his strong suit, he delighted in acting out the stories and fantasies thriving in his head-actively participating in the stories he was absorbing. Picture this: A young Ryan La Sala, already invested in stories and fantasies but not yet realizing that writing is the path he wished to embark upon.
